The Player's System

Chapter 156 - Rituals



Rituals

The security men took the kid away and the king sat under the circle again. The magic master sprinkled few drops of the blood of some unknown creature.

The Ashmorn screamed on the floor. She was looking at the runners since they betrayed her. Ashmorn was full of agony and hatred. She might have killed them immediately if it was not the chains preventing her.

The magic master started the rituals. Junan was silent however he sent half of team members secretly to save the hundred pairs of humans from the Orlenia tower.

The king did not notice because he was sitting with the closed eyes. Jake knew very well that after stealing the Ruby the rituals would not last longer.

Three security men were standing near him in order to keep him away from the team head.

He was sure that after knowing about the robbery of the Ruby the king would immediately capture him and search. Jake stole the Ruby however he was not sure how it would work to save the Ashmorn. He completed his urgent task as well as the level task.

The level task was to steal the feast of kings. It accomplished. There was no more burden on his shoulders. Jake was calculating the time between the revelation for the king and the small battle that he would have to fight against three security men.

He was standing in the middle of the distance the Ashmorn in his right hand and the team leader at his left hand. Jake was short on time to decide whether he should run toward the Ashmorn and handover her Ruby or he rush toward the team leader.

His actions and the decision would influence the fate of this level. The rituals were going on. The magic master picked one of the bones and handed the king.

It was meant to be tainted with the blood of the Ashmorn but before this the king should pick the ruby in his hand to complete the ritual before sacrifice. It was to show the superiority over the Ashmorn. He searched the Ruby in his waist. The king placed it there however the Ruby was missing.

Jake immediately fired at the security man and killed him without giving another moment then he rushed toward the Ashmorn. Jake picked the Ruby and placed it in her hand. As soon as he placed it on her hand the chains broke. The strong gust of wind made her stand.

The red blood eyes looked toward the king. Everything accumulated around the circle got blown away with the gust of wind. The king wide opened his eyes at the turn of events.

His hoody gown flew and revealed his cursed face. The Ashmorn did not speak anything instead placed the Ruby in the middle of the forehead. The ruby got fixed in the forehead and emitted sharp red beams. These beams fell on the king. The Ashmorn killed without giving him chance for retreat and try his magic skill.

Few moments later the ruby emitted slightly pink light and healed the little Ashmorn. She looked toward the younger player. During this time the rest of the team members came. They witnessed what happened to the king.

The Ashmorn slightly smiled and bright light engulfed the team members. The level got completed and she sent them back at the exit of the game portal.

It was sudden. They walked out of the exit. When they entered in the hall they were ready for blood battle however the younger player made it easy for them. Walking out of the exit Junan asked, "I also thought that the Ruby is with the king but I was unable to decide how to get it. It seems you are ready to become perfect thief." He patted his shoulder.

If not stealing taking the ruby from the king might have given them immense damage. There was possibility that half of the team members might have reached the red line of the hp.

"I thought to steal it before he becomes alert." Jake answered. (The second level got completed especially the last task was sudden and the spectators were in the middle to comprehend the situation.

The experienced guild leaders were watching this level keenly. They wanted to guestimate some of the points of the team especially what strategy made them win against the last boss.

The second reason they were keeping their eyes at the younger player. He was special case in the portal. They were unable to tell the logical explanation behind the actions of this younger player. Despite trying their best his last actions made them speechless.

First of all they mocked when he fell in front of the king the biggest boss. But knowing that he stole the precious Ruby made them jealous. They were actually jealous. After thinking for several hours they were forced to accept that this action of the younger player saved the plight of the rest of the team.

Any experienced player could tell after some deliberation that Ruby could be under the possession of the king however who would fell in front of the king to steal it? Of course they would decide to battle.

This was the difference. Jake was getting the pointers of the task panel to make the things easier for his levels. It ultimately brought ease for the team members. The third team was able to complete the task before the time limit. It added stars to their performance.

They were now center of attention. The spectators were very glad to see this live portal. Some of them went to search their favorite players on the social media to express their wishes. Some of them went back to rest and get ready for beginning of the third level.

Many were thinking about the prospects of the third level.. They wanted to estimate the type of portal and the type of tasks however they were unable to guess because every level meant to be with unique and fresh concepts.
